<p>[QUOTE=&quot;abbypanda, post: 2665072, member: 9362&quot;]I was originally asking several things</p><p><br /></p><p>1. when it comes to birmingham (location) hallmarks, or the lion etc (they are often 3 together for the year, location and silver) if theres any known fakes. I found blogs on fake unger pieces, etc, showing the differences in the fakes and real marks and all that. I simply wondered if there was such a thing with the lion marks, for ex. I know with coins, for example, there are blogs showing pics of fakes and the small altercations. I was curious if that&#039;s a known thing with the lion, letters, etc on late 19c jewelry or if it&#039;s largely not a problem and should be assumed as legitimate with the markings.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. I was also asking about this locket specifically (owl) since it had no hallmarks. I was curious about it since i find such a large # of similar lockets in this exact style but no info on the makers to be found anywhere I&#039;ve looked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
